An Interaction of a Rarefaction Wave and a Transonic Shock for the Self-Similar Two-Dimensional Nonlinear Wave System

We study a two dimensional Riemann problem for the self-similar nonlinear wave system which gives rise to an interaction of a transonic shock and a rarefaction wave. The interesting feature of this problem is that the governing equation changes its type from supersonic in the far field to subsonic near the origin. The subsonic region is then bounded above by the sonic line (degenerate) and below by the transonic shock (free boundary). Furthermore due to the rarefaction wave in the downstream, which interacts with the transonic shock, the problem becomes inhomogeneous and degenerate. We establish the existence result of the global solution to this configuration, and present analysis to understand the solution structure of this problem.     

Transonic shock and rarefaction wave interactions of two-dimensional Riemann problems for the self-similar nonlinear wave system

This paper addresses the self-similar transonic irrotational flow in gas dynamics in two space dimensions.We consider a configuration that the incident shock becomes a transonic shock as it enters the sonic circle, interacts with the rarefaction wave downstream, and then becomes sonic. The rarefaction wave further downstream becomes sonic (degenerate) creating an unknown boundary for the governing system. We present the Riemann data for this configuration, provide the characteristic decomposition of the system, and formulate the boundary value problem for this configuration. The numerical results are presented, and a method to establish the existence result is briefly discussed.     

Global Solutions of Shock Reflection by Wedges for the Nonlinear Wave Equation

When a plane shock hits a wedge head on, it experiences a reflection-diffraction process and then a self-similar reflected shock moves outward as the original shock moves forward in time. In this paper, shock reflection by large-angle wedges for compressible flow modeled by the nonlinear wave equation is studied and a global theory of existence, stability and regularity is established. Moreover, C ^0,1 is the optimal regularity for the solutions across the degenerate sonic boundary.     

Stability of viscous shock waves associated with a system of nonstrictly hyperbolic conservations laws

We introduce a simple model of two conservation laws which is strictly hyperbolic except for a degenerate parabolic line in the state space. Besides classical shock waves, it also exhibits overcompressive, marginal overcompressive, and marginal undercompressive shock waves. Our purpose is to study the behavior of the corresponding viscous waves, in particular the manner in which these waves are stable. There are several basic differences between classical shock waves and other types of shock waves. A perturbation of an overcompressive shock wave gives rise to a new wave. Monotone marginal overcompressive waves behave distinctly from the nonmonotone ones. Analytical techniques used in our study include characteristic-energy and weighted-energy methods, and nonlinear superposition through time-invariants. Although we carry out our analysis for a simple model, the general phenomena would hold for overcompressive waves which occur in other physical models.     

THE RIEMANN PROBLEM FOR THE NONLINEAR DEGENERATE WAVE EQUATIONS

In this paper we consider the Riemann problem for the nonlinear degenerate wave equations. This problem has been studied by Sun and Sheng, however the so-called degenerate shock solutions did not satisfy the R-H condition. In the present paper, the Riemann solutions of twelve regions in the v u plane are completely constructed by the Liu-entropy condition. Our Riemann solutions are very different to that one obtained by Sun and Sheng in some regions.     

一类KdV-Burgers方程的奇摄动解与孤子解

讨论了一类具有大Reynolds数且弱频散性的KdV-Burgers方程, 在数学上表示为一类奇摄动KdV-Burgers方程.KdV-Burgers方程中含有的非线性项与频散项互补作用形成稳定向前传播的孤立子.通过数学分析, 描述了孤立子的传播途径和传播速度等物理量的发展变化规律.通过奇摄动展开方法, 构造了该问题的渐近解.首先,用Riemann-Earnshaw方法求得退化解, 得到了简单波, 该简单波波形中的任意一点与初始点都存在一个传播速度差, 这使得波在传播过程中波形不断畸变, 最终形成冲击波面, 即间断面, 在它的两侧质点的速度有一个跳跃, 且随时间不断变化;其次, 在退化解的间断曲面处做变量替换, 构造一种修正的行波变换, 得到了内解展开式的孤子解, 并证明了内外解的存在性与唯一性;最后,通过一致有界逆算子的存在性做了余项估计, 并得到渐近解的一致有效性.结果表明, KdV-Burgers方程在大Reynolds数且弱频散性的性质下,扰动集中在退化解的间断面附近,孤立子链接两侧质点,其传播途径不是时间与空间的线性形式,而是沿着退化解的间断面附近传播,形成稳定的波形.     

Semi-hyperbolic patches of solutions to the two-dimensional nonlinear wave system for Chaplygin gases

Semi-hyperbolic patches are the regions in which one family out of two nonlinear families of characteristics starts on sonic curves and ends on transonic shock waves. This type of region appears frequently in the two-dimensional Riemann problem for the Euler equations and its simplified models and a few other situations. We construct a semi-hyperbolic patch of solution to the two-dimensional nonlinear wave system with Chaplygin gas equation of state by approaching the problem as a Goursat-type boundary value problem which has a sonic curve as the degenerate boundary.     

Existence and stability of traveling wave solutions to one‐sided mixed initial‐boundary value problem for first‐order quasilinear hyperbolic systems

When one characteristic of the system is linearly degenerate, under suitable boundary conditions, we get the existence of traveling wave solutions located on the corresponding characteristic trajectory to the one‐sided mixed initial‐boundary value problem. When the system is linearly degenerate, by introducing the semi‐global normalized coordinates, we derive the related formulas of wave decomposition to prove the stability of traveling wave solutions corresponding to all leftward and the rightmost characteristic trajectories. Finally, for the traveling wave solutions corresponding to other rightward characteristic trajectories, some examples show their possible instability. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Pointwise Green's Function Estimates Toward Stability for Degenerate Viscous Shock Waves

ABSTRACT

We consider degenerate viscous shock waves arising in systems of two conservation laws, where degeneracy describes viscous shock waves for which the asymptotic endstates are sonic to the hyperbolic system (the shock speed is equal to one of the characteristic speeds). In particular, we develop detailed pointwise estimates on the Green's function associated with the linearized perturbation equation, sufficient for establishing that spectral stability implies nonlinear stability. The analysis of degenerate viscous shock waves involves several new features, such as algebraic (nonintegrable) convection coefficients, loss of analyticity of the Evans function at the leading eigenvalue, and asymptotic time decay of perturbations intermediate between that of the Lax case and that of the undercompressive case.     

The degenerate hyperbolic problem for the two-dimensional nonlinear wave system

This paper constructs a local classical solution of degenerate hyperbolic problem for the two-dimensional nonlinear wave system. To deal with the parabolic degeneracy, we introduce a new set of coordinates to transform the nonlinear wave system to a new system that has explicitly singularity-regularity structures. By constructing a weighted metric space, we establish the existence of solution for the new system. Returning the solution to the original variables, we obtain the existence of the classical solution for the nonlinear wave system with degenerate boundary value problem.
